These people have a distinctive thinking pattern. They tend to believe that:
Having power and control gives them excitement in life, and they are always seeking excitement.
· They are unique. They see themselves as smarter, more creative and more important than ordinary people. They are narcissistic (self-centered) and grandiose (self-important).
· They are never wrong. When they don't get what they want, or are caught in dishonest or manipulative behavior, they complain that they have been victimized, misunderstood or mistreated. They are good people, despite their manipulative, exploitative or otherwise harmful behavior.
· Caring equals using. They believe that if you care about them, you will let them manipulate and take advantage of you.
· People who work hard just aren't clever enough to attain their goals through "easier" and quicker means such as scheming and manipulation.
· They are entitled to have what they want regardless of the consequences for themselves or others. They can rationalize the use of any means in the pursuit of their goals.

· When a troll comes into your life, delete the message instantly (if possible).

· Do not reply to it.

· Do not try to soothe the person.

· All they are looking for is attention, so by not giving it to them you win and they will disappear. (If they don't you have a completely different kind of toxic person - a stalker, and you should notify authorities and report the person).

You're too funny.

And the atheists in this section of the forum are the worst

I think if you get real, you'll admit it's definately NOT just the atheists who go after you or are the 'worst'. Besides, you have claimed quite a few times you are an atheist too, so why would that even be a point to bring out?
As someone else might say, "cool"...... :thumbsup: [Thanks for that one, SurveyMack ;)]

Hahahaha. I found the initial conversation on this thread very interesting and decided to keep reading, I'm glad I did or I would have missed this and it literally made me laugh out loud because this is the exact moment I would have inserted a "cool." After a good 2 or 3 posts of giving logic, and her responding with irrelevant comments usually about religion, lack thereof, or something absolutely random I find "cool" to be the only appropriate response haha.
